Overview
Syllabus
Holography with broken spacetime symmetries and its transition into adulthood
Original motivation
Condensed matter systems
STEP 1: relaxing momentum and get finite conductivity
Solution #2: the first holographic revolution
Solution #2: a more convenient way, the axion model
Clarifying an important point
Still something missing
Solution #1: holographic stripes
Solution #2: homogeneous models
Lesson #1: hydrodynamics, we have a problem
Holography driven EFT developments
Ops, one more missing thing
General low-energy description
A universal prediction from holography
It does not depend on the symmetry which is broken
Finally, a(nother) proposal for our beloved strange metals
What is next?
